Industrial Ethernet<br />
Industrial Ethernet <strong>for</strong> <strong>photovoltaic</strong> <strong>systems</strong><br />
Active <strong>and</strong> passive components <strong>for</strong> efficient networking in your<br />
<strong>photovoltaic</strong> <strong>systems</strong><br />
The aim of using components from the Industrial Ethernet branch, is that all<br />
devices within a system network together using just one bus technology <strong>for</strong><br />
the whole system. Thereby process data <strong>and</strong> diagnostic functions can be<br />
exchanged independently of the device between the network participants,<br />
<strong>and</strong> also centrally monitored <strong>and</strong> controlled. <strong>Weidmüller</strong> offers <strong>for</strong> the<br />
networking of PV <strong>systems</strong> a comprehensive line of active <strong>and</strong> passive<br />
networking components.<br />
This consists of the following individual components:<br />
• Unmanaged <strong>and</strong> managed switches<br />
• Media converters<br />
• Power-over-Ethernet Switches<br />
• Industrial wireless components<br />
• Serial/Ethernet converters<br />
• Plug-in connectors <strong>for</strong> copper <strong>and</strong> fibre optic transmission<br />

Media flexibility<br />
Media converters <strong>for</strong> conversion<br />
between copper <strong>and</strong> glass fibre<br />
media as well as <strong>for</strong> bridging larger<br />
distances <strong>for</strong> applications over a<br />
wide area.<br />
Investment protection<br />
Serial/Ethernet converters allow access to<br />
components with serial interfaces over<br />
the Ethernet network, like controllers,<br />
measuring devices or inverters <strong>for</strong><br />
example.
